Forgive my ignorance... I understand you must be a shareholder of record on the 18th, and I understand you can't sell those shares before the ex-dividemnd date in order to get the dividend... What I am a bit lost on is how far in/out from the shareholder of record date can the ex-divy date be..the ex date can't be BEFORE the record date can it?
